I really wish I could enjoy China.

But the downsides of being a Western in China are too big and since it's somewhat rooted in the culture by now ( arbitrary laws), I shouldn't go... Ever



There are millions of Americans doing business in China, 2 Michael's in jail isn't something that can be considered an arbitrary law as much as Canada keeping a Chinese citizen in jail.


You're lying. Canada acted on a US-warrant ( not an arbitrary law) and her "jail" ( the CFO of Huawei) was in a luxury mansion.

The 2 Michaels China retaliated against, weren't as comfy as her.

Those businessmen are less and less inclined to travel to China.

Here's a lawyer with expertise on the topic, it's a lot more troubling than your "2 Michaels", lol.

This is criminal, arbitrary and clearly political.


Read and learn

There was an arrest by the US outstanding, Canada was required by the extradition threaty to at least act, supreme Court found it lawful. There was already a warrant for her arrest for over 4 months in the US ...

Ming acknowledged her false statements about Iran to enable her to trade with US.

Her "prison" was her 5 million $ home...

The politics was played by China, after the deal that she could go back to China, China randomly locked up 2 Canadians.


A typical case of "our doing is under the law" but their doing is arbitrary.
